Electronically Controlled
Preparations
Before using the filter for the first time, go through the following check-list carefully. No special training is required to
carry out these activities.
Check that the upstream pressure at the filter inlet is more than 2bar (30psi) during the rinse cycle.
Check that the filter is mounted in the correct flow direction.
Check that all the control tubes are connected properly and that all connections are tight.
The nominal diameter of the drainpipe should be at least 3" (75mm).
If the recommended upstream and downstream isolation valves have been installed, check that they are shut.
Getting Started
First operation of the filter
After completing the preparation check-list above, perform the following steps:
1.
Slowly open the isolating valve at the filter inlet. Water will flow into the filter.
2.
Check for leaks and repair if necessary.
3.
Check that the minimum inlet pressure remains 2bar (30psi) or higher.
4.
Slowly open the isolating valve at the outlet of the filter.
5.
If there is a by-pass valve, close it slowly.
6.
Ensure the flow through the filter does not exceed the filter's published maximum flow rate.
7.
Start a manual flush by pressing the push button on the controller panel.
8.
During the self-cleaning cycle, check the pressure at the filter inlet and in the rotor chamber.
NOTE
: The minimum pressure in the rotor chamber should be 1.5bar (22psi) lower than the inlet pressure.
